The equilibrium constant is 0.090 at a particular temperature for the reaction:
H2O(g) + Cl2O(g) ⇌ 2HOCl(g)
Use this information to decide what will happen, given the following sets of initial conditions:
Will the reaction shift to the left, to the right or will the system be at equilibrium?
A 4.0 L flask contains 1.15 mol H2O, 0.078 mol Cl2O, and 0.09 mol HOCl.
A 1.0 L flask contains 0.57 mol H2O, 0.0005 mol Cl2O, and 0.31 mol HOCl.
PH2O = 501 torr, PCl2O = 13 torr, PHOCl = 24.2 torr.
PH2O = 220 torr, PCl2O = 48 torr, PHOCl = 21.7 torr.
